BCI continues releasing Saturday morning classics from the Filmation studio
and Secrets of Isis is one of the most anticipated DVD
sets from that massive catalog. No wonder it's one of the hottest selling
DVDs on Amazon right now.

I was a big fan of Shazam which preceded Isis by a
year on Saturdays in the mid-'70s. Shazam hasn't found it's way
to DVD yet but The Secrets of Isis - The Complete Series
is the next best thing.

The Secrets of Isis stars Joanna Cameron as Andrea Thomas (Mighty
Isis), with Brain Cutler as Rick Mason, Joanna Pang as Cindy Lee, and
Ronalda Douglas as Rennie Carrol. Even Captain Marvel himself pops up
to help, remember they shared a show together with The Shazam / Isis
Hour for two years.

Many believe Isis was the best live-action superhero program
of the era (I rate it second, right behind Shazam) but there's
no doubt, with a soaring sense of wonder that delivers genuine thrills
and chills, it'll be great for your kids. Or get it for yourself, for
the nostalgia appeal. Sure, Isis harkens back to a simpler time,
but that part of the appeal.

As is the custom with BCI, the extras are plentiful. There's an audio
commentary track for one episode and new cast interviews along with a
plethora of other great features including a bonus episode of the animated
series Freedom Force starring Isis.

I'm looking forward to more Filmation classics from BCI (the Archies
/ Josie and the Pussycats / Sabrina shows are coming soon under a
different distributor, sadly without the abundance of extras BCI has spoiled
us with - see below).

Description:
Oh Mighty Isis! She was Saturday morning's first live-action super-heroine,
saving lives and stopping crime in a mini-skirt and go-go boots on
The Secrets of Isis! When science teacher Andrea
Thomas unearthed a lost treasure on an archeological dig, she found
that the mystical amulet endowed her with the powers given to the
ancient Egyptian Queen, Isis!

Now granted the powers of animals and the elements,
Isis soars as the falcon soared, runs with the speed of gazelles,
and commands the elements of the sky and the earth. Although her secret
identity is unknown to even her closest friends, fellow teacher Rick
Mason, or students Cindy Lee and Renee Carrol, Andrea uses her powers
as Isis to stop criminals, save lives, right wrongs, and teach valuable
lessons... sometimes with the aid of fellow hero Captain Marvel (Shazam!).

Now available on DVD for the first time, the entire
two seasons of The Secrets of Isis contain a treasure-trove
of special features, and all the super-powered goodness that the heroine
represented. Now, you too can be the heir to...The Secrets
of Isis!
